CHRISTMAS PARTIES
Christmas has definitely been the focus on both our pre school and youth
activities. We learned about the birth story of Jesus and we made many
different crafts to help us remember the meaning of many symbols that we
see at Christmas time. A big thanks to Regent’s and ISE who generously
collected presents and money so that all of our children could receive a gift
this Christmas. One little girl was crying, not because she didn’t like her
present but at 4 years of age it’s the first present she has ever received.

FAMILY CARE
This month the Pattaya Sports Club
have been visiting the local slums
with us to assist those families who
are in urgent need to repairs to their
dwellings. In 2014, they will help to
provide a more stable house for 3 of
our families.
STAFF PARTY
The staff had an afternoon of prayer and
reflection where we all got to share the
high’s and lows of 2013. It was a great
time to also look forward to 2014 and cast
vision for our hopes and dreams of 2014.
We all shared a meal at the Sante Fe
restaurant to celebrate.
SHEEP FARM
The Swedish volunteers paid for all of our children to visit the Pattaya
Sheep Farm and this was definitely one of the
highlights of the month. Upon arrival the children were very happy to
just run and play on the grassed area as we do not have anything like this
at the center. We saw not only sheep but birds, pigs, and a pony. All the
children had an opportunity to feed the sheep milk using a bottle!
